What is asthma?
Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition in which the airways become inflamed and narrowed, making breathing difficult. It can cause recurring episodes of wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness.
Asthma can vary in severity, from occasional mild symptoms to severe asthma requiring advanced treatments like biologics. With proper management, including long-term control medications and avoidance of triggers, most people can lead normal, active lives.
If you have severe trouble breathing, can’t speak in full sentences, or your rescue inhaler isn’t helping, call 911 or go to the nearest ER.
Symptoms of asthma
Symptoms of asthma include, but are not limited to:
- Wheezing (whistling sound when breathing)
- Shortness of breath
- Chest tightness or pain
- Coughing, especially at night or early morning
- Difficulty breathing during exercise (exercise-induced bronchoconstriction)
- Increased mucus production
What are the causes and risk factors of asthma?
The exact cause of asthma is not fully understood. It usually develops from a mix of genetic and environmental factors that shape how the lungs and immune system develop. Common causes and risk factors include:
- Family history and genetics: children of a parent with asthma, especially the mother, are more likely to develop it themselves.
- Allergies (atopy): a strong tendency to develop allergic reactions is the biggest known risk factor for asthma, which is why it often occurs alongside conditions like hay fever and eczema.
- Environmental exposures: cigarette smoke, air pollution, workplace dust and chemicals, and indoor allergens such as dust mites, mold, and pet dander.
- Respiratory infections: viral infections that affect breathing, especially during early childhood.
- Obesity is a risk factor for developing several medical conditions, including asthma and diabetes.
- Early-life factors: premature birth and smoking during pregnancy both increase a child’s risk of developing asthma.
- Sex and age: asthma is more common in boys during childhood and in women during adulthood.
Some factors do not cause asthma but can trigger or worsen symptoms. Common triggers include exercise, emotional stress, acid reflux (GERD), cold air, respiratory infections, and certain medications such as aspirin, other NSAIDs, and beta-blockers.
